The initial idea was to put a neutral vote, but I think the lack of steps to get acquainted with the game mechanics - highly difficult basically from the beginning - is pretty mean to the player. Don't get me wrong, the game seems polished, it runs smoothly, it's just... too hard from the beginning, so I can't really judge what comes after. A game like Slidespace takes the player by the hand and slowly increases the difficulty, pushing people to go on because they're halfway through anyway. Here, the frustration stops you from doing that, which is a pity.
Another small thing: I'd really reduce the length of the initial instructions, they're very long and after the first images I skipped it, preferring to learn whilst playing
Just because a game is very hard doesn't mean it should get downvoted. Sokoblox is very fun if you have patience and actually know that reading is very helpful to intellegence in general hint hint. If you don't have patience, don't play the game. If you don't play the game, don't write a review for the game hint hint.
